Wet Roads Be Careful

[autoworx]

my old 4 door r33 with final konnexion kit was rolled today and is no more

I haven't owned her in a couple of years but have a soft spot for the old girl

please be careful tonight , the roads are very slippery

[Mayuri Krab]

Sorry to hear

I learned my lesson last time when I accelerated too much & my rear wheels broke traction, now I drive like a granny when its raining...

[LANDSCRIBBLE]

shit sorry to hear mate, ive seen this car a few times too.

[Deziner]

Sure is...Saw a mini van tflipped over coming into a round-about in Wangara this afternoon.

Also got a bit side ways in a round-about myself coming into Hillary's, which surprised me in the GT-R as I was in second and doing about 10Km's!!

ive done the same, ive found it to be all the angle of the wheels that causes loss of traction at low speed and revs.

I've found my hand brake and clutch kicking are usually the cause

also boosting in 3rd is good fun

[Benben]

I was careful, the guy behind me wasn't grrr

[AAARGH 33]

Saw a statesman go sideways today coming out of a turn then after that he was revving the thing down road showing off his 'fully hektic' zorst.

2WD + LSD + shift kit

Jus' sayin'.

[Socrates]

got a bit hairy with the 195's and understeer but home and safe.

[Hanaldo]

I can imagine the power would be a bit hard to handle Socs

[V35_Paul]

Last night i put the VDC to the test on the V35.

Yay! it saved my life

The 245's on mine might as well be bike tyres, taking off at lights on a hill is a challenge.

[NA_Goodness]

1.6L Mazda 323 daily with brand new tires... No issues at all! I tend to leave the Skyline at home when it starts to rain, not worth the risk.

[FluffyDiceAndaV8]

This is why everyone needs to get out on the skidpan so they know what to do when it rains.

On another note, 1800kg Luxo in the rain is hairy

[heller44]

Well.... the bunky is a heck of a lot safer to drive when it is pissing down with rain than the shiny white hilux I have to drive for work.. damn tyres might as well be greased..

[Stinky Rooster]

brand spanking new RE001's are paying for themselves at last

[itsme]

Yeah I lost it turning from Cedric onto Karrinyup, didn't help that I had a skidpan day last week and forgot to let the tyre pressure back down. Felt like I was driving on Ice-skates, finally time for some new good quality tyres and getting rid of the compliance tyres yes.. i've had them on for almost a year.. should be good going from 17's with compliance tyres to 18 inch works with some decent rubber on them =)

What do you mean by lost it? you swapped ends?

Fair dinkum, the last time I swapped ends on the street was over a decade ago in my old HZ Prem when I hit a patch of oil in the middle of an intersection, and anyone that knows me knows how I drive, I'm not shy

More driver training for you kids!
